Donald Trump expressed his disappointment at China for failing to stop North Korea despite making “hundreds of billions of dollars in trade”.
Pyongyang, which this week held another successful test of an intercontinental ballistic missile—that analysts said could mean the US mainland is now within range—counts China as its sole major ally.
Trump accused “our foolish past leaders” of allowing the situation to unfold and tweeted that “we will no longer allow this to continue”.
He said on Twitter, late on Saturday night: “I am very disappointed in China. Our foolish past leaders have allowed them to make hundreds of billions of dollars a year in trade, yet they do NOTHING for us with North Korea, just talk.
“We will no longer allow this to continue. China could easily solve this problem!”
